I would recommend this class because it is a college credit that you are able to take in high school. The class is challenging but it helps give an insight of a college history class to high schoolers.

Course highlights:

The highlights of this class is it truly taught me how important studying and reviewing is. I learned new study habits from my peers and I am able to use this knowledge for other classes with extensive reading.

Hours per week:

6-8 hours

Advice for students:

This class is tough but it is easy to maintain a "B" or an "A" if you put in the work. If you set aside time to read and take notes you will do fine in the class. Some of the readings are confusing and hard to understand, but do not be afraid to ask questions.
